    Our office was taken over by a program of extortion which flashes warnings 'Vista Total Security' and has set up an icon in the toolbar at the bottom.  I had disabled Spybot resident briefly to install Carbonite, and apparently, my wife has visited somewhere in the interval and picked this up.  I tried to find it with Spybot and AVG, but neither recognized.  Help!

    Hello

    Vista Total Security is by another name.

    No one program cannot be used to detect and remove any malware. Added that often easy to
    detect malware is often accompanied by a much more difficult to detect and remove the payload. If its
    better to be too full now than to pay the price much later. Check with these extreme
    Overkill point and then run the cleaning only when you are sure that the system is clean.

    These are fake antivirus, a scam to force you to pay for them so that they have no advantage
    Not at all.

    There are several versions with similar names to verify these and if none are

  • How to remove Vista Total Security 2011?

    I recently got the virus 'Vista Total Security 2011' and he blocked me to open my internet browsers. I changed all its settings and completed the process with the Task Manager, and now he let me on my browser. However, now I can't open anything on my computer (for example: Itunes, Skype, etc.) and it won't let me run things I download once I download them. It keeps saying "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. May not permissions to access you the item. "What I do and how do I remove this virus?

    I'm not very good with computers, so I don't really know what to do... Help, please.

    My problem is solved! I actually didn't use all the methods presented here, but thank you for your help. My friend told me I could use "System Restore" and some degree of restoration before I caught the virus.

    If any of you have this problem, I strongly suggest you this :) It's really easy and I didn't do much. Thank you all and good luck to anyone having the same problem!

    Do yourself a favor and remove the application.  Mac do not need AV applications and at best, they will be not hard (but not good either) and at worst will corrupt your system / OSX's built in protection.  Your concerns are malicious software that requires the cooperation of the user to install, not the virus.

  • Is XP Total Security virus?

    This seems to be a 'fake' piece of software. He joined himself in the MSFT security software.  He is running a routine continuously saying "Virus Infection". It will launch a scanner that lists the malicious software and where it is located.  the ONLY solution is to activate total security XP software.  When you click on save, it asks your personal information and credit card.  I tried to launch IE and Firefox.  The XP Total Security software blocks access to internet and requires you to revisit the site for credit card information. It's a resident app memory (I think) Security XP logo appears in the toolbar next to "time".  I now use window Malware detection tool, after 2 hours, no results, but it still works.  Any other suggestions? This code is sneaky... and seems VERY genuine.
